How to have two whatsapp accounts in one phone

You can set up dual WhatsApp accounts on a single device without installing any third-party phone number applications or performing any kind of dark magic - here is our step-by-step guide to adding two WhatsApps on one phone:

In order to do this, you need to install and verify both WhatsApp Messenger and WhatsApp Business apps on your phone. Use the Google Play Store or the App Store to download these apps.

Here’s the important part – you can only use one phone number for each app. So you will need a virtual secondary phone number in order to receive a second verification code for one the WhatsApp apps.

Luckily YBN offers that feature - generate your virtual number now.

It’s completely up to you to choose which number you will use for WhatsApp Business vs WhatsApp Messenger chat app. Consider which number you already use for family or customers and which will cause the least confusion overall if you move it to your second WhatsApp account.

For example, if you’re setting up a brand new company, it makes sense to keep your personal number private and generate a new number to use for your new Business account.

If you’re splitting out existing messages from one WhatsApp account into dual WhatsApp apps, consider how you’ll inform your customers that you’re moving to a new number. Luckily, WhatsApp Business broadcast lists offer an ideal solution – you can quickly and easily let them know en masse, right in the app.

Once the setup process is complete, you can repeatedly switch between the two accounts as often as needed, depending on which chats you want to see – work or private. Just return to your home screen, and open WhatsApp or WhatsApp Business.

Third-party apps such as App Cloner or App Twin are used to create multiple WhatsApp accounts on a single phone.

However, if you just want to use the WhatsApp app and WhatsApp Business, they’re not necessary, as you can install WhatsApp and WhatsApp Business simultaneously on the same iPhone or Android phone.

If you want to use two WhatsApp chat app accounts with separate phone numbers, you might have considered using a primary phone and a secondary phone, or a dual SIM smartphone mobile device.

With YourBusinessNumber, you don’t need to buy two phones to get a second mobile number – and you can set up multiple WhatsApp accounts in minutes on most phones.
